Welcome to Omaha/Bellevue: Omaha Soccer Complex, South Omaha

 The Bob Campos Soccer Complex has lots of playing area, and there are many goals stored along the sides.  I am sure lots of fun come Spring.  Just north of Q on 33rd street.  

Tony the Goal Scorer

Tony got the ball in his own half and most of the other team in front of him (no off sides.)  He then made a clever self pass, He may have done that twice, passing past most of the defenders, and then running to get the ball himself behind them.  Tony can run really fast.  He then had only the keeper to beat, and did the same thing again, kicking the ball past the keeper when he tried to get it, and then running past the keeper, and he had an empty net into which he kicked the goal.  Tony has assisted in the past, but this is his first goal.

Overbooked Saturday: Camberly's Birthday

Overbooked Saturday: September 19 2015

Now that Cub Scouts and soccer in full swing, every Saturday is overbooked.  However this week was even more so and we had to leave some activities out.  The ones we included were Tony’s soccer game.  Tony played midfield and forward, and di an admiral job.  He is better defending than attacking the goal, but you can tell he has some skills at turning the ball around and made some very nice passes.  He played forward the entire second half and was really tired b the end. 

We jumped from there to Mickey Grove Park and Zoo for Cub pack meeting.  Caleb received a couple more belt loops and is now half way to Wolf with the new changes.   The Cub Scouts were doing a service project in the zoo, but Sheri and I stayed out and kept the picnic table for their return and for Cub Grub.  We had to leave quickly and were still a half hour late for Camberly’s birthday party.  She turns two this month.  She was very cute throughout.  As soon as I arrived she looked me out to sit with her in the pool.  Skylar and Tony joined us in the pool, as did the little Dye girl.  Camberly and ___fought over each other to sit on my lap.  I was very popular.  Camberly enjoyed sitting on the side and kicking the water to make plashes.  Skylar was being adventurous and walking on the step a bit deeper, and must have missed a step.  I didn’t see him go under, but somebody yelled and I grabbed him quickly; but he was headed down and I had to grab deeper than I thought so I missed him the first time.  He was under for five seconds or so, but that is scary when you are two.  He coughed some, and then went back to playing in the water. 

Charity and Anthony provided a great lunch.  That had yummy potatoes.  (I hate to admit it but I gained a pound as a result.)  Also barbecued chicken and hotdogs and salad Miranda had made.  I got Camberly a hotdog and she ate the whole thing.  I really enjoyed the lemonade as well.  The take was also good.  It was layered with white and chocolate.  Camberly enjoyed blowing out the candle.  She was proud of herself and got to do it again.  Then cam present opening.  There was lots of paper stuffed in the bags, and Camberly pulled it out.  She found many nice things.  The clothes she passed to Tony to give to her mother; but the books she stopped and had to look at them.  She was a cutie.  We cleaned up and headed home, getting there after eight so did not attempt to go to the high priest social.

Tony Report

Tony did well in soccer.  He usually plays defender and is pretty good at it.  I think he could be a really good soccer player, but I really think his best sport is basketball.  He needs an older brother back to work him some.  He seems to be doing well in school.  He has advanced to third grade next year.  I keep pushing him in Cub Scouts.  They changed the program so he has to pretty much start over with new requirements.  Somethings transferred over.  He is two thirds of the way to his wolf.    He has gotten four sports belt loops, flag football, fishing (he did at pack meetings) soccer and marbles.  He is really into ipad and ipod.  I guess he has inherited one of each.
